🚨🚨News Flash 🚨🚨 So excited to feature in Sage's new AI and accounting policy report Going for Growth with ACCA and Demos. It reveals the huge growth opportunity this technology presents for both bookkeepers and accountants and the wider UK economy. The report found: ✅ High levels of AI adoption in every UK practice could add £2bn to GDP and create an additional 19,000 jobs. ✅ AI adoption is on the rise. 26% of practices have implemented AI today, expected to increase to 52% in five years. ✅ Accountants and bookkeepers are technology optimists. 61% believe AI will create more opportunities than risks. ✅ Unless tackled, an AI skills deficit will restrict the adoption of AI. Only 16% feel well prepared to meet the AI skills demand. We look forward to staying part of the debate to ensure we can unleash the potential of AI across the accounting industry. 👉👉 Head to the Sage website to find out more Bee Motion | Cerana Official

ATTENTION UK BASED BUSINESSES Accounting isn't just about numbers, a very good accountant will help you create business growth opportunities - which means more money in your pocket. I regularly speak with Lee Taylor a UK based accountant about such issues, and I recommend if you have a UK based business, and want to create more profit in 2025, you ought to have a chat with him.

Keeping up to date is always key especially when using different accounting software! HB Associates Chartered Accountants is a proud Silver Xero partner and our clients love Xero just as much! 😊 So it is even more important for myself to stay up to date on the latest changes so that my clients can get the most out of their accounting package! #xero #accountingsoftware #cpd #accountantlife

Ever wondered about those bits of paper and getting paperwork from you into software? Have you tried Apron ? This morning I am on an ICB UK (Institute of Certified Bookkeepers) webinar with Gavin Fell Lara Manton MICB talking about it. Got any questions? We'll try to answer them, and discuss the pitch to switch. Super fast processing time, easy work flows for bill payments. https://lnkd.in/e8yMVynK #bemorebookkeeper #moretimetobeawesome

Especially if your accountant is waiting for your information! #taxreturn #selfassessment #hmrc #smallbusiness #taxes

If you use Xero Accounting you may have received an email recently advising that from 1 July 2024 they will be increasing their fees (which actually isn't quite 12 months since their last price hike!) So I had a look at all the inclusions in my Xero plan, and there were a few things I wasn't even using. I assessed the plan which is the tier below the one I am currently using, and noticed their inclusions (which have improved over the years) are more in line with what my requirements are. After consulting my accountant it was clear that switching plans was the right move and we did it. This move saved me almost $500.00 a year from just reviewing one piece of tech in my business. This brings me back to my post last week, highlighting the importance to review the tools and tech you invest in your business (annually at a minimum), because any small changes made over time can make a huge impact in your business.

"Xero might be great for the smaller business, those say under £250k of turnover but it can't handle the chunky stuff" Some people even then suggest looking over to Quickbooks as a meatier cloud solution That's absolute BOBBINS Xero CAN scale beautifully to huge proportions with the right app stack plugged in I've worked on £50 million turnover businesses doing thousands of transactions a month no problem in Xero Ecommerce businesses for example can plug in A2X and then not only smash the volume but deal with all types of weird and wonderful VAT rates cross borders If you've got multiple warehouses with millions in stock, no worries, bang in Cin7 Core Have loads of users that need detailed purchase or sales order approval? Sweeeet that's a job for ApprovalMax Truth be told that's much easier to do that than work with a clunky Quickbooks that drives me bonkers with its loading times and most apps either don't work as well as in Xero or indeed don't really work properly at all Scarier still some businesses pay over £10k a year for high end accounting solutions such as netsuite and the like when Xero + apps would do a BETTER job for a fraction of the price If you're serious about scaling you can start and stay on Xero for a long long time #scaling #growth #cloud10

😵 Staggering how many companies are formed annually. Great for accountants😄, but this puts pressure on resources in the industry and yet again pushes up the cost of the commodity which is accountant time...🤨 When will software come in and reset the industry? https://lnkd.in/gaM67Y3X #accounting #company #business #finance
